Post-Sabbatical Report: Fall 2014

Introduction

It is with great pleasure and gratitude to the selection committee and Board that I

write about my sabbatical experience during the fall semester, 2014. In my original

proposal, I detailed a rather ambitious plan to address five different areas related to

Spanish/English interpretation and translation, for the purpose of establishing new courses

at Solano Community College in the field of bilingual (Spanish/English) translation and

interpretation. When I originally wrote my sabbatical proposal in October of 2013, I was as

yet unsure of the specific direction my focus would take, whether in the healthcare field, in

legal settings; whether in interpretation (oral transfer of messages) or translation (written

transfer from one language to another) or a combination of all, as I intimated in my

proposal.

In the semester prior to my sabbatical leave, I began to fine-tune my focus,

researching the various certificate programs offered by local community colleges, assessing

Solano Community College's specific strengths and student needs, and considering the

viability of setting up a certificate program at our College. During this time, I also

followed up with connections I had made with professionals in the fields of medical and

legal interpretation, through my 2013, trainings at the Agnes Haury Institute in Arizona,

and the Monterey Institute of International Studies, and over time, I decided that during my

sabbatical I would specifically focus on healthcare and community interpreting, given that

these areas are in great demand in Solano County and are more viable for our students to

study. To focus additionally on the fields of legal interpretation and translation, as I had

originally envisioned, would have made my task too overwhelming. These are fields that

have longer histories in the U.S., are more heavily regulated, and potentially could be more

unwieldy to shape into topics tailored to community college courses. Therefore, as I show

-30-

in the report that follows, my focus shifted to explore the areas of community interpreting,

and specifically, healthcare interpreting, which is a sub-category of community

interpreting.

Outcomes of Sabbatical

Below, I have included in bold the five areas which I intended to explore in my

original proposal, followed by the specific actions I took during my sabbatical, and during

the spring 2015 semester which followed:

I. Academic Preparation: Attend various trainings in legal and medical

interpretation to become qualified to teach and practice as a professional

interpreter.

My advanced academic training is in the Liberal Arts, specifically Comparative

Literature, Spanish and French languages and literatures. Therefore, this sabbatical

offered an invaluable opportunity to "stretch" outside of my zone of familiarity, to

explore healthcare, community, and human services settings, cultures, and vocabularies.

I am delighted to report that as a result of my sabbatical, I am now officially a certified

healthcare interpreter, giving me the confidence and expertise both to practice as a

medical interpreter, as well as to teach the material with depth of understanding; I also

have become an official trainer to teach Communith Interpreting, at individual and

institutional levels.

During my sabbatical (fall 2014), I attended/completed the following:

• University of Arizona, Certificate of Completion National Center for

Interpretation 2-Week Agnese Haury Institute, Medical Interpreters Training

Institute, June 2014 (80 hours total of instruction)

-31-

• University of Arizona, Certificate of Competency

National Center for Interpretation NCITRP Medical Interpreter Competency

Examination, June 2014

B. Semester subsequent to sabbatical (spring 2015): The following actions resulted

from the seeds planted during the previous semester's sabbatical.

• Enrolled and completed (while teaching a full load at Solano College!) City

College of San Francisco's course, Healthcare 80, "Interpreting in Healthcare I, "

a 6-unit class which offered (as described in the catalogue), "Training for

bilingual individuals to develop awareness, knowledge, and skills necessary for

effective language interpretation in health care settings. Emphasis on the

standards of practice of a healthcare interpreter, basic knowledge of common

medical conditions, treatments, and procedures, cultural competency for specific

communities necessary in the art of interpretation."

The CCSF program in Healthcare Interpeting is the oldest in the area and is the

model followed by other California community colleges. I had the great fortune

to interact and work with the program's creators, Professors Nora Goodfriend-

Koven, and Gayle Tang, who generously provided invaluable suggestions,

materials, and mentorship around my interest in developing a similar program

here at Solano.

• Attended the California Healthcare Interpreting Association's (CHIA) Annual

Conference on March 6-7, 2015 at the Monterey Plaza Hotel in Monterey, CA.

• Became a Certified Health Interpreter™ Spanish/English, granted by the

Certification Commission for Healthcare Interpreters (CCHI) April 2015,

after successfully passing competitive written and oral exams

-32-

• Obtained Certificate of Completion six-day Training of Trainers, The

Community Interpreter® International, Columbia Maryland, July 2015 (48

hours of instruction)

• Obtained Associate Trainer License (CI-000192-01) in The Community

Interpreter® International Edition, Professional Training for Community

Interpreters, Columbia , Maryland, July 2015

II. Research: Research Bay Area community colleges’ certificate offerings in

Spanish/English interpretation

• I conducted extensive internet research of local, and state-wide institutions, both

at the community college level, and at four-year universities, that offer degrees

and certificates in legal and/or medical interpretation and translation. I

established connections with professionals in the field through the various

trainings I received who helped me develop leads and ideas further.

III. Network and Create Relationships: Network with interpreter trainers and

professionals in the field; meet and work with colleagues at Solano Community

College

In addition to meeting and exchanging ideas with preeminent trainers and

professionals in the field of Healthcare Interpreting via email and face-to-face contact,

such as Holly Mikkelson, Katharine Allan, Irene Radillo, Gloria Rivera, Marjory

Bancroft, Nora Goodfriend-Koven, Gayle Tang, I also developed important

connections with members of the Solano College Community, including Erin Moore,

who proved invaluable in helping me understand the steps involved in creating new

courses, and potentially a new certificate in bilingual healthcare interpretation.

Additionally, I had a preliminary meeting with the Dean of Health Sciences, Maurice

-33-

McKinnon, to establish common interests and brainstorm ideas for ways to implement

interdisciplinary collaboration. And I met with Liberal Arts Dean,Neil Glines several

times in the course of the semester to check in and obtain feedback for ideas and

questions I had. Also, I had the pleasure of working closely with Dr. Saki Cabrera to

develop materials for her Human Services program.

During my sabbatical, I regularly attended Dr. Cabrera's HS 55 Human Services

course to pilot ways of incorporating Spanish language and cultural materials into

human services contexts. The collaboration, which was a great success, was featured in

Solano Community College's, Student Success Review, Volume 1, issue 2, February 19,

2015. Below is the excerpt that was published:

“In Fall of 2014, Dr. Cabrera collaborated with Spanish professor, Dr. Laura Pirott,

who provided very basic lessons in Spanish for students enrolled in Human Services 55

(Case Management) and who translated numerous forms that will enable fluent Spanish

speakers to assess, link, monitor and eventually discharge a consumer in Spanish. The

students learned to introduce themselves in Spanish, obtain basic information, adhere to

cultural norms, and make information available to Spanish speaking service provider

who will follow-up with the Spanish speaking consumer. This skill is invaluable given

that providers may only have one opportunity to ensure that consumer needs are met,

which empowers providers to overcome language barriers that would otherwise impede

their ability to meet the needs of their Spanish speaking clients.”

--Solano Community College, Student Success Review, Volume 1, issue 2, February

19, 2015

Another curricular outcome that was borne out of teaming up with Dr. Saki Cabrera,

has been the plan to revamp the 4-semester sequence of courses that is currently offered

through the Spanish Program, titled Spanish for Medical Workers 61M-64M. After

consultation and discussion, Dr. Cabrera and I feel that these courses could be greatly

enhanced by renaming them "Spanish for Healthcare and Community Service

Settings," to include more diverse materials culled from the community and human

-34-

services areas. This sequence would continue to cater to the true beginning students,

many of whom could be recruited from the Human Services Program. Having a clearly

defined beginning-Spanish track titled "Spanish for Healthcare and Community

Services" would clarify some of the confusion that currently exists among students,

many of whom mistakenly believe that these classes are for upper-level Spanish

speakers. Creating two new classes specifically tailored to heritage students and those

with advanced proficiencies, as I detail below, would address a real demand for upper-

level, professional development courses.

I would not have had the opportunity to meet with and attend Dr. Cabrera's class to

pilot our ideas without the time provided by my sabbatical. The impact on student

learning has been immediate, and will continue as we develop our ideas further. Our

collaboration will impact both the Human Services Program, as well as the Spanish

Program. We are planning to teach a "learning community" in the near future. to

explore other ways to bridge our respective disciplines, and better serve the student

body and community.

IV. Volunteer Work: Engage in volunteer interpreter and translation work to gain

experience in the field:

In my preparation to teach interpretation and translation skills, I felt it was

imperative to get hands-on practice, to get a real sense of what is at stake when

practicing interpretation skills successfully. To this end, I volunteered with the

following groups:

• Peter Soskin, Esq., K&L Gates LLP 4 Em barcadero C enter

(approximately 12 hours total in the course of the fall 2014 and spring 2015

semesters). Peformed a range of interpretation services in various areas,

including immigration and healthcare/psychological settings, for two

individuals seeking assylum, represented pro bono by lawyer, Peter Soskin.

-35-

• Richmond Naturalization Workshop, East Bay Naturalization Collaborative (3

hours total of interpretation services to immigrants seeking naturalization;

workshop took place 11/8/14.).

• Richmond Art Center (13 hours total of written translation during the fall 2014).

Translated course descriptions of art classes they offer into Spanish.

V. Course Development: Create several new courses in medical and community

interpreting with the aim of developing a CTE Certificate of Achievement in

Spanish/English Interpretation at Solano Community College

It has been a tremendous task to sort and channel the immense amount of

information and experiences gathered during this period into manageable course

outlines and proposals. I have been tackling this process in the two semesters following

my sabbatical, though there have been some delays, given the competing demands of

time due to other departmental commitments, most notably that of Program Review,

which our short-staffed department of four full-time instructors has been tasked to

complete by February of 2016.

However, during the fall 2015 semester, I did manage to begin the creation of two

new courses in CurricuNet. These are tentatively titled, "Introduction to Community

Interpreting in Healthcare, Educational, and Human Services Settings" and

"Interpreting in Healthcare I." The course outlines and textbooks have been set, but I

need to follow-up with Solano College staff members who are more familiar with

curricular set up, for the purpose of possibly incorporating an internship/practicum

component to the Healthcare Interpreting class. In October of this year, I met

extensively with Erin Moore, who kindly outlined the next steps I needed to take, and

the people with whom I need to meet to bring these two course proposals to completion.

-36-

Once this is done, and the courses are tested and assessed, I will be able to continue the

process of creating a certificate program in Healthcare Interpreting.

Conclusion

As I conclude my report, I would like to add that, during this current semester, I

taught an upper-level Spanish 4 class in which I introduced some of the material gathered

from my sabbatical, as a way to gauge student interest in the subject, and to test some of the

specific techniques and exercises. Given the nature of Spanish 4 which provides a

comprehensive review of the language, weaving medical interpretation material was a

"natural" progression of combining practical oral skills with "real-life" scenarios. My

students were very receptive and enthusiastic about the material, and expressed a strong

desire to further their studies in medical interpretation. Several students in another class,

my Spanish 3 class, also expressed a strong interest in pursuing interpreting as a

professional career. I feel gratified that students have responded so enthusiastically to the

materials presented, as yhey are looking forward to future course offerings.

In my estimation, my sabbatical proved to be immensely fruitful. It gave me the

opportunity to develop my skills through multiple means: classroom learning, networking,

and hands-on practice. My experiences and training have prepared me to create two

courses in the field, which I am now qualified to teach as a certified medical interpreter.

The information I share by these means will greatly benefit Solano College Students, and

the community at large. The creation of these two new courses are timely, given Solano

College's application to the US Department of Education to be designated as a Hispanic-

Serving Institution.

I know my time was well spent, and I look forward to completing the course

proposal process in the spring of 2016. Thank you for your time in reviewing this report.

(Please see attached Certificates obtained as a result of the sabbatical).
